ABSTRACT
Objective To establish a method for the isolation and identification of platelets.Methods 10 healthy volunteers were selected to collect the EDTA anticoagulant venous blood of 3 tubes,each tube was 2 ml,which was divided into the whole blood cell tube,platelet rich plasma (control group),and stepped centrifugal platelet extract (experiment group).Platelet was isolated by simple centrifugation method(PRP) and stepped centrifugal method.The two groups were full blood count and analyzed by microscopic morphology and platelet activity test.Leukocyte specific HGB gene and platelet mitochondrial ND1 gene content was analyzed by real time PCR.Results Platelets were extracted and detected in control group and experimental group.Platelets were found and white blood cells and red blood cells were not remained in experimental group.Platelets and sporadic white blood cells were found in control group.The platelet pick up rate of experiment group was significantly higher than control group,the difference was statistically significant.Experimental gene content HGB of experiment group was significantly lower than control group,the difference was statistically significant (t=-3.281,-2.865,P＜0.05).ND1 gene content of experiment group higher than the control group,the difference was not statistically significant.There was no significant difference for platelet activity test between experimental group and control group (t=-0.046,-0.799,P＞ 0.05).Conclusion A isolation and identification method of stepped centrifugal platelet was established.The method can be used for the study of platelet gene and the functional analysis of platelets.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To explore the correlation between human leukocyte antigen( HLA)-B~* 13 : 01 allele and liver dysfunction in patients with occupational medicamentosa-like dermatitis due to trichloroethylene( OMDT). METHODS: Twenty patients with OMDT were chosen as study subjects by using a convenient sampling method. The sequence-based genotyping method was used for detecting HLA-B~* 13 : 01 allele in the DNA samples from peripheral blood of all study subjects. The serum levels of total protein,albumin,total bilirubin,direct bilirubin and alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase activities in patients were examined. The correlation between the number of HLA-B~* 13 : 01 alleles and the liver function indices was also analyzed. RESULTS: There were 16 patients carrying HLA-B~* 13: 01 allele. The serum total protein in the HLA-B~* 13: 01 carriers was higher than that of non-carriers( P < 0. 05). The serum total protein was positively correlated with the number of patients carrying HLA-B~* 13: 01 alleles( P < 0. 05). CONCLUSION: The degree of liver function damage in OMDT patients may be related to carrying the HLA-B~* 13: 01 allele.
